Acrophobia Treatment - Conquer Your Fear of Heights with Hypnotherapy
The fear of heights, or acrophobia, is one of the issues that we regularly treat
here in our UK hypnotherapy centersThough often incorrectly referred to as 'vertigo', true acrophobia is an extreme and irrational fear of being in high places. For the acrophobic individual, however, perception is all - a high place may simply be nothing more than a couple of rungs on a ladder, for instance.(Vertigo is the feeling that the head is spinning or swimming which occurs when the head is not actually spinning. It can be set off by any movement - standing up or sitting down too quickly, or simply as a result of the person's visual perspective.)True acrophobia can indeed be dangerous, since the feelings of anxiety that it produces can so easily be transformed into feelings of genuine panic when the sufferer is high up. And a person who is in the throes of panic can be in no position to get him or herself down safely.The actual symptoms of acrophobia are very similar to other anxiety disorders. Often symptoms such as rapid breathing, shortness of breath, rapid heart rate, dry mouth and feelings of nausea are experienced by the acrophobic individual.Often, the person suffering from acrophobia adopts an avoidance strategy that can really restrict his or her daily activities as well as determining and adversely affecting such things as holiday location, visiting friends and relatives, and even impacting on their work life.Though it may be quite natural to have a healthy respect and a degree of apprehension regarding heights as part of the instinctive survival mechanism with which we are all born, the term phobia is assigned to those who experience extreme fear in this regard.Most often, the person suffering from acrophobia has had a scary experience in their past which has installed a negative conditioned response to height. Sometimes though, acrophobia can be caused more or less by proxy; the child learning the fear through empathetically mimicking an adult during the child's formative years.Whatever its cause, acrophobia is a fear that emanates from the part of the mind that we call the subconscious.This, of course, is the home and repository of all our beliefs and the driver of all of our feelings. It is from here that our feelings and emotions flow and so it is to the subconscious that we must turn for any really effective treatment of acrophobia.And this is where advanced transformational hypnotherapy is of such benefit.Through the medium of correctly applied advanced hypnosis, the experienced therapist can help the acrophobic individual to connect with the subconscious and guide it in order to disclose the experiences and the beliefs that drive and maintain the anxiety and fear. This accomplished, those beliefs or 'programmes' can be corrected and realigned, freeing the individual from needless fear and anxiety.If you or someone you care about is experiencing the awful, restrictive condition that is acrophobia, do not despair, help is available.In the hands of an experienced and fully qualified advanced transformational hypnotherapist, acrophobia can be conquered in a fairly brief period of time - often in as little as two or three sessions.With the correct therapy, the individual can return to the freedom of a life lived free from the anxiety and fear that has governed it for so long.
